Default Fogging of windows.

So where exactly does the nearly always commented on fogging of windows come
from during launch? I'd have thought that as its always accelerating the
crud from the srbs should always be behind this position.

What about the sep motors in the noses of the SRB's? What about atmospheric
condensation? The latter is seen on the ET camera during every launch.

Well, I was trying to imagine where the sep motors are in relative position
to the windows, but I would have thought this would be left behind also.
Condensation of course, but from what I hear some fogging persists, which if
condensation is rather unlikely I'd havethought considering the varying sun
angles.
